Two UK developers have announced they will be collaborating on the development of an as of yet unannounced VR project.

“Fierce Kaiju are very pleased to be working with our friends at Coatsink on an all new co-developed VR title,” said Paul Colls, Creative Director and Co-Founder of Fierce Kaiju.
 
“Both Fierce Kaiju and Coatsink have created pioneering VR projects and we have a lot of respect for the Coatsink team and their achievements,” he continued. “We’re building something very special and we can’t wait to reveal more in due course.”
 
Eddie Beardsmore, COO at Coatsink, also had a few good words to say about the new partnership:
 
“We’re thrilled to be collaborating with such a talented team - and the creators one of our office game night favourites, Viral Quarantine. We can’t wait to show VR fans what we have planned.”

MercurySteam have announced the release date for the next standalone campaign coming to Raiders of the Broken Planet.

“Whereas Alien Myths explored some of the ancient culture native to the Broken Planet, Wardog Fury is fascinating because it focuses on one of the human factions and delves deeper into their lore,” said Enric Álvarez, Co-Owner of MercurySteam.
 
Here’s a bit more detail on the new characters and their abilities, which all Raiders players will be able to unlock:

• Doldren, a native of the Broken Planet who is lethal with a pistol or submachine gun, but even more deadly when he resorts to his bare hands.
• Iune is another native to the Broken Planet, who has the special gift of the Anhaurii, meaning she can weave Aleph to grant her unique powers. In addition to her mystical powers, Iune enters combat armed with her hunting rifle.
• H.I.V.E. is a strange creature that General Marmalade found lethargic in an old temple and attempted to enslave. Soon enough, H.I.V.E. broke free and ended up joining the Raiders. H.I.V.E.’s origins, or its reasons to align itself with Harec’s band, remain a mystery.

If you’ve yet to give Raiders a try the game’s first campaign, Eternal Soldier, is free to download for everyone, with each subsequent standalone campaign available to purchase for €/$/£9.99 thereafter.

Wardog Fury is out 30 November on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.

Vertigo Games and Jaywalkers Interactive have announced some new co-op DLC (or DLZ, as they put it) for their zombie slaying VR title, Arizona Sunshine.

The first of the maps, Old Mine, is set in, you guessed it, an abandoned old mine shaft. Players start out armed with only a torch and are forced to approach the mode with a more tactical mindset as they’ll need to balance defending their area with going on vital supply runs in an “utterly dark map”.
 
The second, Undead Valley, takes place in a “zombie-infested warehouse-turned-underground casino” near the outskirts of Las Vegas, because why let something as trivial as a zombie apocalypse stop the good times?
 
Rather than simply defending an area against the undead, players must stay ahead of the horde by slowly expanding their area, collecting new weapons and ammo as they go.
 
Arizona Sunshine’s Free DLZ update is out 28 November on PS VR.

Bethesda have announced that a free trial for Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is now available across all platforms.

James described Wolfenstein II as a “pure and unapologetic” single-player game that “really shines in its storytelling”, giving the game a lofty 9/10 in our review, so be sure to check it out.
 
Wolfenstein II is available now on Xbox One, PS4 and PC. Bethesda have confirmed that a Nintendo Switch version is coming sometime next year, but there’s no mention as to whether the same free trial will be available on Ninty’s hybrid console.

Coatsink (Esper 2, Augmented Empire) have detailed the sixth and final content pack for their VR title, A Night Sky.

The final pack, Night of the Emperors, is available now and features winter-inspired content, including a new mini-game, new characters and the introduction of the Northern Lights. Players will also be able to chill out with a family of penguins.
 
“With A Night Sky, we wanted to create an accessible and charming introduction to VR that newcomers could pick up and immediately understand and play,” said Animator Emma Hollingsworth.
 
“We also wanted to push the humor in our animations and make sure there’s always a new character or amusing detail to discover around the next corner. We maintained this approach for each of the content packs, always aiming to do something new to captivate the player.”
 
For a limited time, all six content packs, including Night of the Golem, Night of the Dragon, Night of the Phoenix, Night of the Kraken, Night of the Martians, and the newly released Night of the Emperors, can be purchased together for a discounted price of £2.99/$3.99/€3.99.
